Answer:

infinite number of solutions

Explanation:

y = 4x - 11 → (1)

4x - y = 11 → (2)

Substitute y = 4x - 11 into (2)

4x - (4x - 11) = 11 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

4x - 4x + 11 = 11 ( subtract 11 from both sides )

0 = 0 ← true statement

This indicates the system has an infinite number of solutions
